Default speedometer light not working.

hey guys, so last night when i was leaving work i cranked my car and turned on my lights. everything came on except for my speedo light, and for some reason smoke started coming out of my a/c vent beside my driver door. i've checked the fuses today, and as far as i can tell none of them are blown. does anyone else have an idea as to what might have gone out? i havent checked the light yet, but i really don't think it was that.

Check the fuses, if that looks good you can jump the red and black wires the go to the switch with a paper clip and if they come on the switch is dead.
